I believe someone said you could use a tractor beam of a docked ship (ie a Firespray) to drag ships onboard, but I've never tried it and it would be counter intuitive. Not that stops a lot of things here.

best bet is to hire a transport company to do it for you if you cant. I just had SYT Transport pickup a total of 9 from two different locations and place them in system for complete coverage. They were very, very helpful and quick.

I thought you could simply land next to the factory they are located and force them off onto your ship? And then force them out in space once you get out there.
Is it not that easy?
Funnily enough I actually JUST started a sysat batch 4 minutes ago and that was my plan....

Alright then, may have to get myself a Quasar, that should solve the problem without too much hassle.
I just thought you couldnt force ships from ship to ship, I didnt know it was ships in general to ship.
